Description A well-preserved Roman period copy of the Doryphoros of Polykleitos cast circa 440 BC, from the time of Tiberius (14-37 AD), found in Pompeii, Moi, Auguste, Empereur de Rome exhibition, Grand Palais, Paris.jpg |
English:
Naples National Archaeological Museum
The canonic proportions of the male torso established by Polykleitos ossified in Hellenistic and Roman times in the heroic cuirass, exemplified by the Augustus of Prima Porta, who wears ceremonial dress armour modelled in relief over an idealised muscular torso which is ostensibly modelled on the Doryphoros. It should be noted that the same depiction has the legs of the emperor arranged in the same manner as the stance of the Doryphoros.
